Tied Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Russia... Stop.... Those are merely advnaced Soviet KGB addons to glorious rifle for technical supremecy over the enemy in the field of small arms Just like the Abrams gas turbine is a wasteful ineffictent engine that limits autonomy, but the T-80's gas turbine is a STRONK engine that makes tonk of T-80 king of speedy maneuver warfare Do want Kurds with RPGs/ATGMs. Call me a consipracy theorist, but those Panzerfuast 3s, and AT4s, and Milans and Gustav's look more and more like overkill for ISIS T-55s and Type-59s and maybe, say, might end up being aimed at Syrian or even Iranian T-72bs soon Still, Kurds still look badass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(The Iranians at least seem capable of putting their pants on in the morning without help, so I doubt ISIS will be capturing much from them).

Belesarius Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Why would NATO countries keep a stock of AT missiles that can't deal with a T-72? Because Bunkers and stuff. M72 LAW saw a ton of Canadian use in Afghanistan as a bunker/mg emplacement buster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.E. Watters Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 That's Trey Knight, son of C. Reed Knight. The gun is an obscure silenced revolver survival rifle project by Knight's Armament that's a heavily modified Ruger GP 100. Actually, the rifle variant was based upon the Ruger Super Redhawk. The GP100 variant was a handgun only. The ammunition for the KAC suppressed revolvers used a captive sabot. The large caliber sabot stopped against the forcing cone of the small caliber barrel to seal the cylinder gap. The propellant gases were then left to flow into the suppressor. In articles that I've seen, the project was credited to Reed Knight and John Anderson. However, the cartridge concept is derived from an earlier design by Charles R. (Bob) Olsen. He saw it as the basis for a high velocity revolver cartridge without the need to use a bottlenecked case with its setback problems. He called it the Invicta. The models he showed to the shooting press back in the early/mid-80s were built on Dan Wesson revolvers. I suspect that no one wanted to market it due to the possibility that some idiot would slip a standard cartridge into the cylinder and try to shoot it out of the smaller diameter bore.

A early 70s RPG-7 can easily be the god of war when you are shooting at nothing but monkey model Soviet tanks driven by semi suicidal teenagers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoooSeR Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Mr. Nathaniel, here is additional photo for you from Russian forum where i got first photo of that thing. Did they just attached 7.62x39 mag to it? It does look like 7.62x39 mag. Sturgeon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturgeon Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 The magwell dimensions for a 7.62x39 and 5.45x39 AK are different (mags for the former physically cannot fit into the latter), so it can't be a 5.45 AN-94 with a 7.62x39 mag inserted.It's gotta be a 7.62x39 AN-94.

It's gotta be a 7.62x39 AN-94. Picture shows just mock-ups of guns, as i understand. ММГ markings are for mock ups, which are made as non-functioning real weapon, or made straight from real gun after some modifications to make it incapable to fire even after some work put into it.
